Re: Week 2 Trip.

I'd like to join in on the festivities...are they planned for the evening of 9/15?

FellsPoint, a stop at the Cat's Eye is surely part of the plan, no?

Yes, Friday evening it will be.

I don't do the Cat's Eye. Firstly, they card at the door, which could cause problems for one of our brethren, and secondly I have a couple of issues with their political leanings. I may be able to overcome these reservations and stop there for a pint if everyone wants to go, though.

Fells Point can probably expand on this but my understanding is that it originated through fans of British Rugby. As you may know, there are a gazillion rugby songs, mostly bawdy and rude . This particular song has the line "if she don't come, I'll tickle her bum with a stick of celery."

Apparently while singing this in the stands of your local Rugby field, you then proceed to wing the celery at fans of the opposing team.

The last time Dave was here, we launched a barrage of celery at some hapless Chiefs fan walking bythe tailgate. Hilarious.
